La Concha has passed, and now what?

We are fully into the month of September, the month of football par excellence; The La Concha regattas have passed, and the last hardships of summer will gradually give way to autumn, to the new year, and everything that comes next will have a nuance of authenticity, of verismo, that perhaps new, despite the fact that the points are worth it, I don’t have one. And the first partial exam, in many already the group of Imanolwill spend it against none other than the current European and League champions, Real Madrid.

There was no favorable wind blowing for Real at the beginning of this season, where there were no results or, basically, the game accompanied until now. We are now in the full stage of examining the facts, looking for reasons that can explain what is happening. Last Sunday something strange happened to me; I was working on the second day of the La Concha regattas, and on two different occasions two people approached me who were closely related to rowing, but, at the same time, they were convinced. They both have a similar observation to me: will you persevere Imanol?

For more clues, one of the interlocutors is from his hometown, and the other, from very close. It caught my attention that they both agreed on the same concern, showing that anxiety is on the street. Both agreed on the extent of credit the Real Sociedad coach enjoys and, although they started from the premise that nothing lasts forever, they concluded that he has earned it well and deserves all the credit required.

The initial preambles with which the team will start are not the same as in previous seasons and, maybe, maybe, we should assume that this year things may be different. This does not mean that the weather is thrown out before it starts, it just wants to be a warning to the sailors.

Oskarsson express

Events happen so fast that there is almost no time to reflect; You have to act if you don’t want to be run over by competition and rivals. Imanol You should have a feeling by now that you need to adopt more
decisions and in less time than before, since he took charge of the first team.
And one of them, and not exactly the least, is to find a replacement for the injured person. Oyarzabalthe president solemnly declared Afternoon as the team’s “center forward.” If so Michael It won’t get there, so you have no choice but to look behind you and see what you need to solve it. Undoubtedly, everyone wished for a softer landing for the new addition, the young Icelander Orri Oskarssonbut circumstances prevail and, “with hardly any warm-up”, he has to fight in the match against Real Madrid, unless Imanol surprise us with a decision in the opposite direction. Oskarsson has reached
Real close the wound from which the team was bleeding last season. And he’ll barely have time to adjust…because, kid, you’re out now!!!

The long and winding road

This is the title of a beautiful song signed by McCartneybut also a preface that introduces certain difficult stories.

There’s still a race!

A bad host

That’s what Real seems to have become in recent times, a bad host, incapable of asserting the virtues that, in the past, made an Anoeta.
almost impregnable fortress. The next guest, Real Madrid Mbappe and company, is presented as an opportunity to reverse the dynamic and
recover old sensations.
